Workspace Runner runs only with Source of Child Workspace

In the Child Workspace is only one of the 8 Shapefiles defined. In the Workspace Runner there are all 8 Shapefiles.

I cant send Screenshots because of the Paths and Filenames. Im not allowed to.

Child is Like:

"R:\\bla\\1_bla.shp"

and WorkspaceRunner is Like:

ESRI SHAPE Source: windows_path

and my Directory and File Pathnames has:

windows_path:

R:\\bla\\1_bla.shp

R:\\bla\\2_bla.shp

R:\\bla\\3_bla.shp

....

I don't quite understand. Can you give me an example and send me screenshots of what and where should be the same?

The Readers Parameter of the Child is:

Shape name: 1_bla

Reader: 1_bla [ESRISHAPE]

and in the WorkspaceRunner i set it to windows_path and the windows_path has the path to 1_bla and the other Shapes

the shapes were all created by the same process. If I change 1_bla to 2_bla in the Child Workbench the Child Workbench still works.

Edit: Do i need a dynamic reader in the Child workbench? if so how can i do it?

OK. So I go back to my first thought. I think there could be a problem with the parameters.

 

 

When you add the SHAPE in your Child Workspace, a user parameter is generated:

That is the parameter in the WorkspaceRunner that should have the "windows_path" value.

 

I changed the Reader from the Child Workbench from "R:\\bla\\1_bla.shp" to "R:\\bla\\*.shp".

Then in the WorkspaceRunner Parameter a new Line showed up with "Feature Types to Read". I clicked on the 3 dots and selected 1_bla to 8_bla.

Now it works

Edit: First select the Feature Types to Read in the WorkspaceRunner and then Change the shape Source to windows_path in the Workspace Runner otherwise there will be an error
